Includes Certificate of Authenticity, show exhibition card featuring "Bluebeards Castle" from the "SpaceTime Exhibition" in NY, NY, and the printed Painting Dossier including the creation progress timeline of the Original Painting. Also includes the ticket stub from the Metropolitan Opera production of Bluebeard's Castle that inspired the painting.

This painting will also be available as a Giclee Print after it's gallery debut as part of the “SpaceTime” Series Exhibition in Manhattan in Feb 2017, presented by SparrowMint Product Gallery.

Painting Narrative:This painting was inspired by a night at the Opera Here, heroine of the painting is surprised at what she finds at top of the stairs and yet she continues. The painting fell off the easel not long after it’s started, so the slight splintering of the stretcher bar was incorporated into the painting - you can see it in the hole at the top of the Castle steps (to dispose of body parts?) in the bottom right of the canvas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Custom and personalized orders

Giclee Prints are listed at 12"X12" but other sizes are available including 16"X16" and 24"X24"

How long does it take if I commission an original oil painting?

Original Oil Paintings can take 3-4 months to complete due the technical nature of laying the thin layers of paint, and the spatial complexities. You'll get weekly progress updates of your painting while it's being developed.

Where can I buy frames for the unframed Giclee Prints?

I'm working on a short video with suggestions for Frames. I just purchased 18" square frames from West Elm that worked out nicely. I'm ordering some custom mats to use with the frames.

One thing to keep in mind when choosing frames is that the print image is 12"X12" but the paper is larger, usually around 13" Square.

Frame sizes are generally the outside dimensions of the frame, not the inside dimensions that hold the paper.

Generally, for a classic 2" border (matted or floating), you want a frame that is at least 17" Square.

In the decor shot in the About section, the nickel frame with the gray backing is 17.5" square, and the black gallery frame is 18" square.
